Halcrow offers a full range of the multi-disciplinary geotechnical and environmental services required for the regeneration of contaminated sites, enhancing land values and bringing these sites back to beneficial use.

These services include:

  • planning and supervision of ground investigations
  • geo-environmental audits
  • risk assessments
  • groundwater modelling
  • regulatory liaison

design and supervision of remediation schemes with sustainable objectives including re-use of earthworks materials and the avoidance of waste generation.

Our experience of the whole project cycle as part of multidisciplinary teams of engineers and scientists on a large number of major projects provides us with a broad perspective and understanding of the complete regeneration process. This is fundamental to the integration of geotechnical and contaminated land services and enables the provision of integrated and cost-effective solutions.
